3 Credits (Minimum) 3 Credits (Maximum)

This course will present the history of the national cinema of Denmark through the work and life of its best directors: the classic Carl Theodor Dreyer, the well-known Lars von Trier, and new directors whose names for the most part are known only in the narrow circles of art cinema professionals. The Danish cinema has entered its renaissance when in 1995 a group of four directors announced the new movement Dogme 95, and made it right on their promise to create magnificent innovative cinema. Approved for LAS Global Awareness requirement.
